Power Train Hydraulic System

SMCS - 3000; 3100; 4000

The hydraulic system for the power train consists of two separate subsystems.

The first system supplies oil to the torque converter and the planetary transmission.

The second system supplies oil to the output transfer gear, the interaxle differential lock and the
three axle differential locks.

Torque Converter and Transmission

The transmission hydraulic control system provides pressurized oil to the clutches of the
transmission planetary. Pressurized oil is also supplied to the torque converter and to the torque
converter lockup clutch.

Oil from the sump (1) of the torque converter is drawn through suction screen (2) by oil pump (3) .

Oil from the pump is supplied through oil filter (4) to downshift solenoid (5) and upshift solenoid
(6) . Oil is also supplied to selector and pressure control valve (13) . Downshift solenoid (5) and
upshift solenoid (6) control the flow of pressurized oil to rotary actuator (7) . Rotary actuator (7)
determines the position of selector spool (12) in selector and pressure control valve (13) .

Selector spool (12) in selector and pressure control valve (13) allows pilot oil to flow to individual
valves (8) on pressure control valve (9) . The position of the selector spool determines the path of the
pilot oil to the individual valves.

Each individual valve is a modulating valve which controls the pressure of the oil that is supplied to
the clutches in the transmission planetary.

Oil from the selector and pressure control valve also supplies the torque converter. The oil that is
used by the torque converter is then sent through the transmission oil cooler and back to the
transmission as lubricant.

Oil pump (15) for the transmission oil is located in the top of torque converter housing (16) .

The oil pump is splined to gear (17) which is driven by the input to the torque converter via idler
gear (15) .

The oil is drawn by the oil pump from the sump in the torque converter housing. The oil then passes
through suction screen (2) to port (14) in the oil pump. The oil is then pumped from port (19) to the
system. Hose (18) receives oil from the system in order to lubricate the pump drive group.

Location of transmission oil filter

The transmission oil filter is located on the right side of the engine.

The oil enters oil filter base (20) through cavity (22) . The oil flows from cavity (22) through filter
element (21) into cavity (24) and out of the filter base.

If there is a restriction in the filter element the oil pressure in the filter increases. The increased oil
pressure shifts spool (23) to the right against spring (25) . When the spool is moved to the right, oil
flows directly from cavity (22) to cavity (24) . The oil filter element is now bypassed.

Transmission Oil Cooler

Illustration 6 g00792759
This is a view from below the transmission oil cooler.

The oil cooler for the transmission is located on the right side of the engine below the oil cooler for
the brake system.

Oil from the torque converter is sent to the oil cooler and the oil is cooled by engine coolant. Oil
from the oil cooler is then used to lubricate the transmission, the pump drive group and the accessory
drive group.

Output Transfer Gears and Differentials

Illustration 7 g01199130

A second hydraulic circuit supplies lubrication for the output transfer gears. The circuit also controls
the interaxle differential and the axle differentials.

Oil from the sump of the output transfer gears (31) is drawn by charging and scavenging pump (26)
through magnetic screen (32) (if equipped) in order to remove any metallic particles that may be
present in the oil. The charging and scavenging pump charges the output transfer gears and the
differential locks. The charging and scavenging pump for the output transfer gears and the
differential locks is mounted on the top of the flywheel housing to the left of the engine.

The oil from the charging and scavenging pump is fed via filter (27) and oil cooler (28) to solenoid
and relief valve (29) that is mounted on the output transfer gear case. The solenoid and relief valve
controls the lock for interaxle differential (30) and the locks for the axle differentials. The solenoid
and relief valve also provides lubrication oil for the output transfer gear (31) .

Operation of the solenoid and relief valve applies oil pressure to the lockup clutch in the interaxle
differential in order to engage the interaxle differential lock. Within the solenoid and relief valve, a
second solenoid valve controls the axle differential locks (33) in the three axles. The circuit allows
the axle differential locks to be engaged only when the interaxle differential lock is engaged.

Engagement of the axle differential locks is achieved when the solenoid valve allows pressurized oil
from the solenoid and relief valve to fill the clutches on the differentials in each axle. When the axle
differential lock is unselected, the oil in the clutches of the axle differentials is able to drain to the
top of the output transfer gear case as additional lubrication.

The oil enters the output transfer gear case at the top. The oil drains down to the sump of the output
transfer gear case and the oil provides lubrication to the gears and the bearings.
